Friday 15th March saw W Bro Harry Carr and Cumbria Lodge No.6643 celebrate the 60th anniversary of Harry becoming a Mason. The Deputy Provincial Grand Master W H Morley BEM was in attendance to present Harry with his certificate marking 60 years of being a member of Cumbria Lodge. W Bro Morley gave the Brethren an insight to Harry’s past Masonic, military, sporting and working life history and after the details on the certificate were read by W Bro Dave Bowden AGDC and Chairman of the West Cumberland group of Lodges, W Bro Morley presented Harry with his certificate.
This was followed with Harry reminiscing stories of notable past members of Cumbria Lodge, what it was like to join Cumbria Lodge in the late fifties and some stories of his military service in the Household Cavalry (Royal Horse Guards).
The raffle at the festive board raised over £150, this was donated to W Bro H Gallagher to be used for the annual Children of Chernobyl visit.
